Yes, this is for the //e. It is the 1 meg slinky memory board. ProDos will automatically recognize it as a 1 meg ram disk in whatever slot it is in. Appleworks will also
use it automatically, as will a few other programs.

It is great for file transfers, since there is no delay waiting for a physical drive. Very useful.

You guys made me pull the top off my //e to check the card. I just couldn't take it any more.
